Lord: I have a skill talent tree

Chapter 228: Why is it always you?

Ethan vaguely felt that everything was connected, but he also felt that he was overthinking it.

The symbol of the Stann family is a two-headed snake, which does not mean that it has any inevitable relationship with plane creatures.

This is just like a person named pineapple. There is no necessary relationship between him and the real pineapple!

Also, although the two incidents both happened fifty years ago, one happened in the orc territory and the other happened in the human rear area. How can they be related?

Ethan immediately denied the relevance of the incident.

But I thought of another possibility.

Although the two-headed snake in the North was stuck in the plane and reality, it already had the ability to cast spells.

Based on this, is it possible that the Noble Phantasm in the Duke's Palace that was sealed was actually just a plane creature?

And it also has the ability to cast spells and create disasters.

You must know that this is the rear area of ​​​​human beings. A slightly stronger creature can cause huge damage.

For example, the two-headed snake felt like it was no big deal just because it was in the North, where there was nothing, and the orcs were more poisonous than the little snakes it split into.

But if that two-headed snake comes to Maruo City and releases the splitting snakes to hurt people, it will be a real-life version of the crazy snake disaster.

In fact, if Volibear is not controlled, it would not be difficult to destroy a city with its physical immunity!

And if you encounter a powerful one, if you can't beat it, just run away, and no one can catch up.

Looking at it this way, does it look more like a disaster than anyone else?

As soon as Ethan thought of this, Volibear's voice came to his ears: "Master, this is completely possible!

There is probably a disease-sequenced plane creature sealed in that Noble Phantasm, and only creatures of this sequence have the ability to affect crop harvests.

Just give me a glance and I'll know who it is. "

When Ethan heard this, he immediately felt confident.

When he was about to talk to Sophia, Sophia shook Ethan's shoulder: "What are you thinking about?"

Ethan smiled and said what he was thinking.

When Sophia heard this, she immediately frowned: "Disease sequence? There is no such sequence in magic!"

"Yes!" Before Ethan could answer, Sofia's apostle appeared and replied: "This sequence belongs to a special branch.

Just because it involves multiple sequences, human magicians have not studied it independently, so there are not many records about it in human magic.

Its first pick is [Plaguebringer], its second pick is [Locust Grace], and its third pick is [Bloodthirsty Forensic Doctor]..."

As the man in red robe talked, Ethan and Sophia had different expressions.

Ethan was as sleepy as a student sitting in the last row during class, while Sophia was just the opposite. She was a good student sitting in the front row.

However, she didn't look like she was listening carefully. Instead, she seemed to have thought of something and was in a daze.

Suddenly, her expression became angry, and then she suddenly cursed: "The Duke's Palace should be damned!"

Ethan was startled by the sudden curse.

"What’s wrong with you?"

"I understand, I understand!" Sofia's expression became increasingly angry: "Damn the Stein family, they all deserve to go to hell."

Ethan became more and more confused: "What happened?"

Sophia took a deep breath, calmed down, and then said slowly:

"We have all been deceived by the Duke's Palace. What [Harvest Goddess Statue], what gods, what disasters, what planned taxes, all lies, everything is a lie."

"What's going on? Don't be so clueless!"

Sophia said angrily: “To make everything clear, we have to start from 50 years ago.

That year, a large-scale insect infestation occurred in the southern plains, resulting in widespread grain failure.

You must know that although the southern plains account for less than one-twentieth of the country's land area, they provide one-quarter of the country's food production.

At that time, due to a poor food harvest, a nationwide famine was triggered, and an unknown number of people starved to death.

For this reason, His Majesty the Emperor personally sent the Prime Minister to Maro City to take charge of affairs, while the Stein family was responsible for specific affairs.

Finally, they set up a sacred object that they said could protect the grain harvest.

The holy object has indeed achieved results, and everything will be smooth sailing every year from now on.

However, the Stein family began to collect planned taxes on the grounds that the holy objects consumed a huge amount of food.

This is also the origin of planning tax.

At that time, people had just experienced a natural disaster and were all frightened. Even if they knew that the planned tax was poison, they could only drink it bravely.

We have been exploited by them for decades.

Now think about it, this is not a natural disaster, it is simply a man-made disaster.

If I guessed correctly, the Stein family already had that sacred object.

No, it is not a sacred object, it is simply an evil object, an evil object that causes natural disasters.

They caused the famine just to collect planning taxes.

These damn bastards will do anything to weaken other families.

Before, I was wondering why Leon was willing to tell you about the [Harvest Goddess Statue].

Logically speaking, this kind of thing cannot be spoken out even if it is rotten in the stomach, but Leon actually tells you without reservation.

Now it seems that it is because they can't get any benefits now and they are unwilling to bear the cost alone.

We were even more worried that a major famine was coming and we would take it out on them, so we reluctantly let the news out.

The most disgusting thing is that even at this time, they still dare to be careful and come up with such ridiculous reasons as the gods.

If you don't teach them a lesson, they won't know how to be human beings. "

When Ethan heard this, he was immediately confused.

Because if what Sophia said is right, then Leon should be lying.

But when chatting with Leon, it was obvious that the other party did not know about this.

The other party firmly believed that it was a god, and firmly believed that the two taxes were prepared for the gods.

Catherine also confirmed this, he was not lying.

But if he hadn't lied, wouldn't it have contradicted Sophia's statement?

So which one is true?

"Leon didn't know that the [Harvest Goddess Statue] was weird, and he really wanted to solve the famine problem!" Ethan said truthfully.

Sophia sneered: "Does it matter if he knows?

In fact, it's only normal that he doesn't know.

He is not the first in line to succeed, and he pretended to be crazy and stupid before.

Do you think the old Duke would have said this to him when he was still alive?

Now that the old Duke died unexpectedly, he had no way of knowing.

If his guess was correct, the news he got might have been told to him by some old guy.

And the old guy himself didn't know much about it.

Otherwise, how could there be such ridiculous claims about gods. "

"It makes sense!" Ethan nodded, and then suddenly laughed: "Sofia, your brain is better than others!"

"You are still in the mood to tease!" Sofia patted Ethan on the shoulder reproachfully: "It's better to think about how to deal with them!

We must teach them a lesson this time! "

When Ethan heard this, he felt very strange.

You were the one who said you wanted to protect the Duke's Palace before, and now you are the one who said you want to clean up the Duke's Palace.
